Fill in the blanks to follow the steps in solving the equation: 5x - 12 -6x = -10x + 7 - 1

Step 1: Combine like terms to get: Response area

Step 2: Get the x-terms on the same side of the equation: Response area

Step 3: Get the constants on the same side of the equation: Response area

Step 4: Use Division Property of Equality:

Answer 1

Step 1: Combine like terms to get: -x - 5 = -10x + 6

Step 2: Get the x-terms on the same side of the equation: -x + 10x = 6 + 5

Step 3: Get the constants on the same side of the equation: 9x = 11

Step 4: Use Division Property of Equality: x = 11/9
